Roasters

VIEW SOURCE

Entity Number: 552

Habitat: Level Heat

Description

Entity 552, or Roasters, are amorphous "blobs" of flames that emerge from diamond shaped holes in the walls of Level Heat. At a temperature of an estimated 2,666° C, they barely brush against the ground at extreme speeds when they lock on to any entity or wanderer, and although burning any and all entities or supplies in their vicinity, they have no effect on wanderers or almond water.

Behaviors

Roasters are almost a living trap, with them secreting out of the holes to burn all supplies on travelers but almond water. Splashing water on these interestingly makes them grow bigger, but they are suppressed by the dark crimson brick of the level, so splashing the fine dust found on the floors can help hinder them. Roasters are the peacekeepers of Level Heat, with them scorching hostile entities. This is helpful if there are any entities chasing you, but due to them locking on to any and all entities it isn't wise to go near one.

Biology

Roasters are blobs of flame with a fine line of where the fire stops, but still churn with heat emanating from them. They can change in size and shape, but could possibly be a source of perpetual energy due to it using absolutely no known energy sources to create flames. Unfortunately, it can burn through any and all materials but the special crimson brick it's level is made of. This does not make for an indestructible material as the bricks have been seen burning for other sources of flame, in which a roaster will just absorb it and restore damage when rolling on the wall.

Roasters have been seen imitating entities by merging into larger roasters with more material. When a M.E.G. explorer was trying to observe it, the blob began taking an eerily humanoid shape, but then collapsed back into it's old form. As of such, they may have somewhat high intelligence, but do not respond to vocal gestures. It is theorized that the flames may not just disintegrate materials and entities, but transport them to a different level, but it is just speculation.

Discovery

Roasters were discovered quite quickly on Level Heat, when entities that once populated it were scorched into extinction by them. Unfortunately, the M.E.G. explorer who discovered them lost all supplies and equipment.
